    Abstract: Disclosed structures include a semiconductor controlled rectifier or bi-directional semiconductor controlled rectifier with a trigger voltage (Vtrig) that is tunable. Some structures include a semiconductor controlled rectifier with an Nwell and Pwell in a semiconductor layer, with a P-type diffusion region in the Nwell, and with an N-type diffusion region in the Pwell. Gate(s) on the well(s) are separated from the junction between the wells and from the diffusion regions. Other structures include a bidirectional semiconductor controlled rectifier with a Pwell between first and second Nwells in a semiconductor layer, with first P-type and N-type diffusion regions in the first Nwell, and with second P-type and N-type diffusion regions in the second Nwell. Gate(s) on the well(s) are separated from junctions between the Nwells and the Pwell and from any diffusion regions. In these structures, the gate(s) can be left floating or biased to tune Vtrig using gate leakage current.

    Abstract: Disclosed structures and methods include a top chip flipped relative to a bottom chip and bonded thereto. On the top chip, dielectric material layers separate a transistor from the bottom chip. The transistor includes source and drain regions, a body region on a channel region between the source and drain regions, and a gate structure adjacent to and between the channel region and the dielectric material layers. An insulator layer is on the transistor opposite the dielectric material layers and includes an opening extending to the body region. Optionally, a semiconductor layer is at the bottom of the opening. A contact extends into the opening to the body region (or to the semiconductor layer thereon, if applicable).
